NEW BOOK: THE AMERICAN SCHOOL OF SPIES: The Archaeologists Who Fought the Nazis and Saved the Treasures of Ancient Greece by Stephan Talty

AMAZON

"Young set about recruiting the most unlikely of spies—academics, classicists, epigraphers, and other specialists and scholars—who would come to be kown as “the Greek Desk.” These men and women, along with their Greek allies, went undercover and tried desperately to protect some of the world’s most significant treasures. The archaeologists hid priceless artifacts in ancient caves, bank vaults, and even underneath the city of Athens itself."
